With all the latest bad news from Xiaomi, where to go to buy a new phone with an unlockable bootloader today?

I used to buy Samsung, then moved to xiaomi, now what?

Unlock the boatloader is a basic requirement for me as at the very minimum I want root and preferably lineageos down the road.

    Wait isn’t it that they changed from three unlocks a year to only one device per Mi account a year. As far as I know you can still unlock one single device a year

      Only for devices with MIUI. Any device (all new ones) that comes with their new android rebrand Hyperion or whatever its called, cannot be unlocked.
